Arizona Basketball assistant coach Emanuel ‘Book’ Richardson was officially fired by the University on January 11, 2018, as reported by Arizona Daily Star’s Caitlin Schmidt. After initially being suspended nearly 15 weeks ago, Richardson had been on paid leave. He is now no longer being paid.
It seems the time has come for Arizona Athletics to feel safe enough to produce proof to the public that the FBI may not have anything on the program. As soon as the official firing of Coach Book Richardson was made public, documents were released by the University that proves no agents freely attended or attended practices at all.
